Forgot to add: If I use hotplug-20020114.ebuild instead, everything seems to work fine - at least my USB mouse.
Hey Edi. First of all: Sorry for the delay (winex currently uses a big amount of my spare time) I fixed the issues and committed the changes to the tree. I dont have any hardware to test this hotplug thingy. Could you give it a try and tell me if it works? -phoen][x-
Thanks, it seems to work now.
